namespace NavigationHierarchy
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://serverName:1111/"))
{
using (SPWeb web = site.RootWeb)
{
SPList list=web.Lists.TryGetList("cl");
SPField field=list.Fields["Country"];
MetadataNavigationSettings listNavSettings =MetadataNavigationSettings.GetMetadataNavigationSettings(list);
MetadataNavigationHierarchy mdnNavHierarchy = newMetadataNavigationHierarchy(field;
listNavSettings.AddConfiguredHierarchy(mdnNavHierarchy);
MetadataNavigationSettings.SetMetadataNavigationSettings(list, listNavSettings, true);
